Keep in mind that you can still submit after the deadline, but you will get a -1 score penalty.
So, use your time wisely.

Good luck!

Is anyone doing Chad?

Chad on the dangrous list

It is level 3 for American passports, same as most countries on the UNESCO list that aren't in southern Africa

The ones Pi said were all Level 4..

* You must do at least one task in the World Heritage Site that you pick. It can be incorporated in the Roadblock, one or both sides of the Detour, or even in the Fast Forward.

Just wanted to confirm that it can be any task (active route info?), and not limited to a roadblock/detour/fast forward.

Tbf, if we consider the us travel safety source as the main guideline, mine and ZBC would have been banned or points reduced on the last round, and if we look back on round 1, US couldn't be visited by most of countries' travel safeties.

My point is, with pandemic going on or stuff, maybe judges should be off with the travel restriction, or even if they need to go for travel restriction, it should be countries that are in military or political heat or stuff like that

It has to be either the Detour, Roadblock, or Fast Forward. Our apologies if that wasn't clear.

Any safety restrictions that we would possibly be judging you on would be related to geopolitical factors, military tension, international relations, etc. and not related to the pandemic.

For me, a non-US citizen, I actually don't really understand about the US travel restrictions. So, I'll just assume that you can travel anywhere, but just make sure that the teams will be safe if they travel to the location you pick. We've had legs designed in, for example, North Korea in the previous season and I don't have any problem with that.

There are so many places in the world that I would love to see a leg in, but maybe won't ever see because of the travel restrictions or conflict currently happening there. So, I want this game to be the place that I can see a leg happening there IF the world is in peace and we can travel anywhere we want.

This is purely my opinion as a person and an Amazing Race fan, so I won't deduct my score if you're bold enough to design a leg there. Keep in mind that other judge(s) may have different opinion than mine, though.

Declive · « **Reply #656 on:** August 09, 2020, 11:26:15 PM »

That's my opinion on it too. We should be free to design anywhere!

The deadline is already extended to tomorrow, fyi. So we can't do another extension for this round.

You can still submit after the deadline is over, but you will get a penalty for that. You just have to submit a way better leg then, so the penalty won't hinder you. Of course this apply to everyone else as well.

Personally, as a guest judge, I won't deduct any points for legs designed in a "dangerous" location. I hope that all of these wonderful countries are safe enough to host a TAR leg in the future and it's great to see what TAR could do there in the future when the situation improves in those locations!

If the regular judges are going by different criteria, then fair enough for them!

Looking forward to these designs!

Yeah unfortunately I think I'm gonna have to turn in late too. Was going to do it today but I've been up since 5 AM helping my grandmother commute to and from work bc commuter buses aren't running like normal due to the pandemic and I feel like I'm gonna knock out.

Here's hoping this isn't what eliminates me

BritishTARFan · « **Reply #662 on:** August 10, 2020, 06:56:33 PM »

Hi guys, I'd like to start out by saying thank you for hosting this event it's been great.

But I'm not able to complete this. I was in Italy Last week and have just started a new job, I'll be recieving my exam results this week too, it's just too much of a hectic time as I'll be starting uni shortly, The only thing I had for my leg was that it was in Kumasi, Ghana aha. So thank you for the fun that the game has given me, But I will have to withdraw sorry
